Hello everyone,

Remember the number 8 symbolizes new beginnings and this 2008 has been the start of new beginnings for many of us! Even if you don't always understand your circumstances keeping a positive attitude and embracing change is key! For many new beginnings came in the form of unexpected lay-offs from jobs this year due to the falling economy. I know some of these layoffs have caused many to lose their homes, cars and some material things but as we know those things can never take away our hopes, dreams, visions and destiny. This year may have ended relationships. The prices of gas caused many to start a new budget or even a home based business. No matter what is happening in your life; you can & will get back up if you don't give up. Everything happens for a reason and may be part of your new beginning process. Remember EAGLES SOAR, they will rise above any circumstance and never let a temporary storm take them down!

For those of you that may be wondering what next? Use this time to look deep inside at your interest or talents and begin to pursue your passion. This is a time & season to make your dreams reality! I have friends that make great jewelry, gift baskets, clothes and purses for fun. This is the time to turn that side hobby or skill into a money making business enterprise. This is also the time to set new goals and move in what you were born to do! I believe this year if you move in purpose you CANNOT FAIL! Have an attitude that you will be successful! It's never too late. This year may also afford the opportunity to meet new people and begin new relationships personally and/or professionally. We should all be connected to individuals who are like minded, purpose driven and inspire us to be all we can be. Some of us may need to change our social circles. As I always say if you want to SOAR with Eagles you can't hang around chickens, buzzards and turkeys! I love to be around, converse and learn from those that dream BIG and are action oriented! You have to move from talking about what you want to do to actually dong it!!!!! One thing I love & appreciate about Robert is he's my biggest partner & cheerleader yet; he also challenges me to do more and holds me accountable to be all I can be. If I say I want to create something, he stays on me until completion and becomes a constant reminder to put action behind my words. If you don't have an accountability partner you may want to reach out to one person you trust and make sure that person holds you accountable to putting action behind your goals until you succeed.

I truly believe this is the year of change, opportunity & new beginnings so let's all make the most of it!

See you at the top!
